Rate of pay
The revised rates of pay will soon be available on the Rates of pay for unrepresented and senior excluded employees web page.
Excluded positions for which rates of pay are identical to those of the corresponding represented group and level will be identified with a hyperlink to the relevant collective agreement.
In addition, as new collective agreements are signed, the Office of the Chief Human Resources Officer will update the above-noted web page.
Implementation of retroactive and prospective changes to compensation
The implementation of retroactive and prospective changes to compensation for employees occupying excluded positions will be implemented in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding with Respect to Implementation of the Collective Agreement (the MOU) included in each relevant collective agreement.
The measures applicable to employees occupying unrepresented positions in the OM, PE and PM-MCO groups are those prescribed in the relevant collective agreement, namely:
- OM and PM-MCO groups: refer to the collective agreement for the PA group
- PE group: refer to the collective agreement for the EC group
One-time lump-sum payment eligibility
A one-time allowance related to the performance of regular duties and responsibilities was negotiated for incumbents of positions within each group on the date of signing of their collective agreement, in the form of a one-time payment of two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500).
This lump sum payment also applies to some employees occupying excluded or unrepresented positions. Eligible employees are those who are not subject to the Directive on Performance Pay Administration for Certain Senior Excluded and Unrepresented Groups and Levels.
This information may be shared with your departmental management colleagues.
Any questions regarding the above should be directed to your departmental Corporate Labour Relations or Corporate Compensation representatives.
